After rejecting my celebrity husband novel Chapter 220

Chapter 220: Chapter 221: The Fate of a Villain [12]

Feeling his breath draw near, Luo Xiaoqian’s heart was about to leap out, yet she did not dodge.

Now hearing him ask this question, she just felt both embarrassed and annoyed.

How was she supposed to reply, possibly say yes?!

"No!"

She whispered irritably.

Leng Zimo did not insist, only pulling the quilt down a bit for her.

Luo Xiaoqian shrunk in his arms for a while, and when she didn’t see him make a move, she suddenly began to regret.

He had done so much for her; how could she still be angry with him? Even if she couldn’t say yes, she could have imitated the heroines on TV, simply closing her eyes and lifting her face, right?

Licking her lips, she quietly lifted her face to peek at Leng Zimo, whose eyes were already closed.

She took a deep breath and finally gathered the courage to quickly kiss his lips, then immediately shrank back under the covers.

Leng Zimo opened his eyes and observed her lashes fluttering in panic.

He smiled, planted a gentle kiss on her forehead, and then wrapped his arms around her even more tightly.

"Good girl, sleep!"

In the dimly lit hospital room, on the narrow hospital bed, the couple embraced peacefully and beautifully.

...

"That’s your own ability, what’s it got to do with me!" Luo Xiaoqian shot her a look, "Right, give it your all in the finals, I’m leaving national first place to you!"

Xu Xia sent her a disdainful look, "Cut it out, ’giving it to me’. What do you want to eat, I’ll wash it for you, how about an apple? I heard they help heal wounds!"

Xu Xia took some fruit and went to the bathroom to wash them.

Yu Tong moved closer to Luo Xiaoqian, "Xiaoqian, you know, the head of Defu Company from our last commercial performance, Li Defu, got in trouble?"

"Really?" Luo Xiaoqian feigned calm.

"Yes, apparently, they were not only involved in the underworld but also drug trafficking. The news said that Li Defu resisted arrest and jumped from a building, landing right on some rebar and died. His accomplices are also all caught now, and it seems like the company’s assets have been frozen as well!" Yu Tong looked genuinely terrified, "I was scared to death seeing the news. Our performance fee is all down the drain, but, thank goodness, you were unharmed. Otherwise, I would have deeply regretted it. Xiaoqian, I am so sorry, I truly didn’t know!"

"It’s not your fault!" Luo Xiaoqian comforted, patting her hand. "From now on, we just need to be more cautious!"
